Do you wake up in the morning with no fear of missing an anniversary or the birthday of your special someone? Do you sit and beat people at Candy Crush while your friends are out taking forced selfies with their boyfriends/girlfriends? If you have said yes to any of these, you are in this crazy phase of your life called "singledom." Don’t get me wrong, relationships are awesome — but being single has it’s own share of "awesomeness" too!
1. You don’t have to face the awkward show of love.

Not the other way round.
10. You don’t have to remember dates for your anniversary, first kiss, first this, first that.

Or buy gifts for those special days.
11. You can eat your food without sharing.

And making the other person believe how genuinely nice and polite you are.
12. You enjoy life without having an attention-seeking baby (read: your partner) hovering around you or calling you incessantly.
13. You can check out and meet new people.

Probably take that solo trip that you never could.
15. You have more time for your parents.
… and friends.
16. But the best thing is that you get to be a free soul and enjoy the hell out of your life until you do meet that special someone.
Yes, I'm single and you'll have to be AMAZING to change that!!!!!
So, keep calm and enjoy singledom. 😀
